Crushes are natural and sometimes you don’t know when you are going to fall for someone and when you do, you don’t know what to do about it. You can always wait a few days and realize that you are over it, but if you find yourself ogling at him ever so often and you can’t stop daydreaming about how it would be if you guys could get together, then maybe you should do something about it. You might not want to walk up to him and share your feelings, but there are other ways to show your feelings or at least give the man a hint before you die of curiosity about what could have happened.

You can start by taking an interest in things he is passionate about. It will give you something to talk about and even if you don’t have much to say, showing your interest when he’s talking is usually a good sign to show that you mean business. If you are already friends and hang out every few days, then physical contact might be another way to go. Sitting next to him in close settings and even a simple hand on his fist when he shares something personal with you is usually enough to melt even the most stubborn of hearts.

Sometimes sharing things is a good way to get close to someone. Of course, you don’t have to if you are not comfortable, but if you really are falling head over heels for this man then you shouldn’t have a problem sharing things. Sharing anything that bothers you at work, home, or even childhood traumas, if that’s okay with you, shows him that you trust him and want to be close to him. If he shares your feelings then there is a good chance he will go through with the awkward, yet exciting, task of asking you out.
